Here we go again
A game of tug-of-war
For me it's real now
I'm not playing anymore
You try to wear me down
With your pretty, pretty words
Just when I think I'm done
I'm halfway out the door
You pull me in again
Promising to give me more
And yet I'm still surprised
Every time that I get hurt
I reach out to touch the flame
Cause I refuse to think it burns
Retreat to lick my wounds
Of course I never learn
You're a rocket to the moon
I'm stranded on the ground
Come back for what you lost
Let me show you, show you what I found
Here we go again
I lose myself in you
Your live defines me
In a way I didn't want it to
If I keep holding on
You're gonna bend me till I break
I'm coming face to face
With what I've always known
That I am terrified
Of who I am when I'm alone
And now I have to choose
Which one of us I'm going to save
I reach out to touch the flame
Cause I refuse to think it burns
Retreat to lick my wounds
Of course I never learn
You're a rocket to the moon
I'm stranded on the ground
Come back for what you lost
Let me show you, show you what I found
You could be
The greatest chance I'll never take
You'll always be
My worst and favorite mistake
I reach out to touch the flame
Cause I refuse to think it burns
Retreat to lick my wounds
But of course I never learn
You're a rocket to the moon
I'm stranded on the ground
Come back for what you lost
Let me show you, show you what I found
And here I go again
